Valentine's Day?

Valentine's Day? What do I think about Valentines Day? The day of love, and sharing, and hearts. Celebrating something passionate. I honestly don't like Valentines Day. It is sickening, people going out of their way just to buy flowers, chocolates, and expensive stuff just to prove one loves another. I think its just an excuse for people to rush into things. Maybe it should be a day to spend together. Instead of buying stuff that might not even matter in a couple of months or so. I hear mom asking me what she should get my dad, and I honestly don't know how to answer her. So she grabs a card. A card? If she wants to say something sweet, why can't she think of something sweet face to face. I just don't get the point...
